Quote of the day
“A gift of this kind speaks to the tremendous loyalty this particular donor has for not only our football program, but all of our student-athletes at Mizzou. Creating a game-day experience second to none is our goal. We can now take a significant step forward — thanks to this gift — in enhancing the atmosphere and fan amenities at Faurot Field. And we’ll be able to see the lasting impact of it for years to come. As I’ve said before, ‘Why Stop Now?’”
